Strange

Famous quotes containing the word strange:

    It may seem strange that any road through such a wilderness should be passable, even in winter, when the snow is three or four feet deep, but at that season, wherever lumbering operations are actively carried on, teams are continually passing on the single track, and it becomes as smooth almost as a railway.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Don’t accept rides from strange men,
    and remember that all men are as strange as hell.
    Robin Morgan (b. 1941)

    Diseased nature oftentimes breaks forth
    In strange eruptions; oft the teeming earth
    Is with a kind of colic pinched and vexed
    By the imprisoning of unruly wind
    Within her womb, which, for enlargement striving,
    Shakes the old beldame earth, and topples down
    Steeples and moss-grown towers.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
